: The actual quote is, "One of Soublighter's most
: successful experiments with reanimation, it is hardly
: surprising that he has brought more of them along this
: time." So Soulblighter did know how to resurrect
: the dead in TFL. I think that, in general terms, every
: Fallen Lord knew how to create every undead unit;
: different Lords simply had different specialties. And
: I don't think ghasts are a less successful experiment
: than thrall or soulless; they just have a different
: purpose. (Against a melee force, a group of ghasts is
: as or more effective than an equinumerous group of
: thrall.) Thrall are tougher and do more damage because
: their maker has spent the time and energy to provide
: each of them with armor and an ax following
: reanimation; ghasts jump out of the ground and attack
: as soon as they're created. Soulblighter and the Baron
: wanted to raise a force of undead to harass and abduct
: civilians as soon as possible; it wasn't worth forming
: an army of thrall when they could just snap their
: fingers and turn the villagers' own dead against them.
Besides, Ghasts are a different branch of Undeadolutionô; they are the first stage in what will eventually be a Wight, not a Thrall. So all the Wights once were Ghasts. I think that Ghasts, then, aren't a very unsuccessfull experiment in necromancy.
